Well done gunit for getting this far!
My first type rating was last year and although we didn't race through the groundschool, the TR was quite fast paced. I had 5 days in the sim then a single day off, then 3 more days before the LST. The 10th day was reserved for CATII ops but ended up being used to finish off the other guys LST which took longer than planned.
The single biggest thing that helped me was getting Microsoft Flight Sim and buying an add-on for the Embraer 145. This proved invaluable initially for the sim assessment before getting the job. It was also great for learning to find your way around the switches and being able to play with the autopilot and various other systems long before starting the TR. This was a huge advantage to me I feel.
Otherwise, keep calm, remember if it all goes to pot - FLY THE PLANE then take stock.
Learn all the limitations, emergency vital actions if any, engine failure / fire procedures until you can recite them in your sleep!
Good luck!
